The Iconfactory, makers of the now-discontinued Twitterrific app, have today launched the spiritual successor to their Twitter client. Tapestry pulls together feeds from Bluesky, Mastodon, RSS, YouTube, and more into a single timeline.
Tapestry brings together social and web feeds in new iPhone and iPad app
A little over a year ago, we reported on The Iconfactory’s ‘Project Tapestry’ which was launched as a Kickstarter project.
Now, the app is live on the App Store and available for both iPhone and iPad. Its purpose? “Tapestry weaves your favorite blogs, social media, and more into a unified and chronological timeline.”
Here’s an overview of the app’s features, via the App Store listing:
- The Web Your Way: Tapestry combines posts from your favorite social media services like Bluesky, Mastodon, Tumblr along with others like RSS feeds, podcasts, Youtube channels, and more. All of your content is presented in chronological order, with no algorithm deciding what you should or shouldn’t see.
- A Bird’s Eye View: Tapestry makes it easier than ever to browse content from dozens or even hundreds of sources. Create custom timelines, seamlessly sync your reading position across devices, and keep track of feeds in an easy-to-read, color-coded stream of content.
- Avoid Spoilers Everywhere: Quickly create powerful rules that control what you do and don’t see across all your feeds. Avoid potential spoilers and stay clear of unwanted topics by creating rules that muffle and mute items in everything you follow.
- Powerful Searching: Search for topics and terms across all feeds simultaneously. Tapestry makes it easy to find that blog post, YouTube video, or podcast you’re looking for – and easy to mark it for later.
- Private By Design: Your privacy is a priority. Tapestry works with content stored on your device, so searching and viewing content is completely private. We never sell or share your data with third parties.
- Custom Connectors: Expand Tapestry’s potential with third-party connectors. Import custom connectors from trusted developers, or even write your own to add your favorite bit of data to the timeline. If there’s an open data feed available, a connector can weave it into Tapestry.
This all comes with the types of features you would expect from the team behind Twitterrific: customization tools for the app icon, layout, and fonts, light and dark mode support, ability to save items for later, and more.
Tapestry is a free download on the App Store, with subscription options available to remove ads, unlock custom timelines, content muting, and theme customization. Subscriptions run $1.99/month, $19.99/year, or you can make a one-time purchase of $79.99.
